Abstract
The liquid slug projector apparatus is entirely pneumatically operated. It comprises a generator having a main housing whose main port fluidly communicates with a liquid body. A first shuttle and a second shuttle are slidably mounted inside the main housing. The first shuttle forms with the main housing a slug chamber for confining therein a liquid slug. A pneumatic source together with a pneumatically-operated valve cyclically cause the shuttles to move relative to or in locked condition with each other, thereby applying during each cycle of operation an abrupt propulsion force to the confined liquid slug which becomes expelled as a very high-velocity liquid jet through the main port.
